Meet Laura Baumeister DeMontis, Nicaragua

“I believe in thoughtful cinema—films that make you think, criticize and question yourself and your surroundings.”

Filmmaker and activist, Laura Baumeister DeMontis, was born in Nicaragua in 1983, in the midst of a revolution spanning three decades. She became interested in story-telling from a young age, and studied filmmaking at the Centro de Capacitación Cinematográfica (CCC) in Mexico.

She has directed more than six short films in Nicaragua, Mexico and Germany. Her 2014 film Isabel Im Winter has been screened around the world, won best fiction short film at Festival Ícaro, and was shown at the 55th Critic’s Week at Cannes in 2016. Laura traveled with Nobel Woman’s Initiative to Honduras and Guatemala for our Women Land and Peace delegation in 2017, and created two powerful short films to document the amazing women human rights defenders we met on the trip.
